1 Claim. (Cl. 131--210) This invention relates to mouthpieces for Spaced baffies M are formed on the rod-like Smoking p p and h s o t p y Object member. The peripheries of the bafiies come in the provision of a device o s c a ac e W c comparatively close contact with the walls of the will greatly improve the smoking qualities of a b of the stem 5 when the mouthpiece is 5 pipe y p v n ing saliv fr m h mouth of adapted thereto.
